I respect your comment and views. Benzos remain a drug overprescribed. Psychiatry in the 1980s and 1990s is complicit in this. I am 64. I was successfully tapered off clonazepam in 2018. It took 7 months. Two doctors assisted me. My neurologist and primary care physician. My cognitive function improved. The pharmaceutical industry has way too much power in regards to facilitating prescription drug use. You need to do what is in your best interests despite the posts on this site.

I agree that the posts on this site should be regarded with caution. Explore, research on your own. Some posts are spot on.....others not so much. I say this as being a healthcare provider for over 40 years.
